Feast of the White Rabbit

It is early spring and with the increase of warmth plants come forward from the earth. The Good life is upon us.

method:

Originally this image looked very different and consisted of layers of fractals only. In the Easter holidays 2004 I had the idea to superimpose a tree into the composition and it became a completely different thing altogether. easter 2004

 

A Magic Lamp

A Solar Goddess to celebrate the solstice. Here she is contained within the vessel.

 

Solar Mum

In this version the sun goddess has come out from behind the clouds to feed us golden light.

Both images have the same roots - fractals. Solar Mum is a further developed version. These goddesses were created on the eve of the 21st june 2004.

Fractal Goddess

Generating a certain fractal formula contains within twin circular images, often inside the same sphere or oval. These distinctly remind me of a set of ovaries with eggs in various states of ripening or movement (colour cycling will reveal these). Superimposing several of these adds up to the goddess' eyes.

With some fractals it is easy to seperate the colours onto several layers. Then effects can be added to each to add 3D effects to all components and to create textures. When layering several overlapping images levels of blend can be created by changing the ink properties in photoshop.. autumn/winter 2003
